NAT-PT
Network Address Translation – Protocol Translation (NAT-PT) is usually applied on a device between IPv4
and IPv6 networks to translate between IPv4 and IPv6 packets, allowing communication between IPv4
and IPv6 nodes. It performs IP address translation, and according to different protocols, performs
semantic translation for packets. This technology is only suitable for communication between a pure IPv4
node and a pure IPv6 node. For more information about NAT-PT, see "Configuring NAT-PT."
